She targeted you deliberately last time, and now sheâs hired trolls to tarnish your reputation. Sheâs beyond contempt!â
As Natalie watched the users continue their digital onslaught against Mandy, she rubbed her chin contemplatively.
âI donât believe Mandy is behind this.â
Lexi, taken aback by Natalieâs assertion, sought clarification. âWhy would you think that? The trolls have squarely placed the blame on her.â
In her characteristic calm demeanor, Natalie replied, âWhile heâs Mandy can be headstrong and conceited, sheâs fundamentally a straight shooter.

After some hesitation, Natalie finally decided to reach out to her.
As soon as the call was answered, the distressed and furious voice of Mandy filled the air. âNatalie! I already told everyone it wasnât me. Why are you calling to accuse me? If there were surveillance cameras in the restroom, Iâd have already released the video and audio of my conversation with Vivi that day to clear my name!â

Natalie chuckled and joked, âYes, I believe you. If you wanted to hurt me, youâd just march into the studio and create a commotion. You wouldnât resort to sly tactics to cause me harm.â For the first time, someone believed her, and surprisingly, Mandy didnât react angrily to Natalieâs playful jest.
Instead, she found herself nodding in agreement on the other end of the phone, saying, âExactly! Iâm not the kind of person who would hide behind Internet trolls and resort to foul play.â

I wonât bother you at your studio anymore,â she said with a hint of embarrassment in her voice. Natalie smiled and shook her head. âSo, should I be thanking you now?â she quipped.
Mandy snorted and responded with a touch of arrogance, âWhatever.â

Hearing this, Mandy promptly gave a detailed account of her encounter with Vivi in the restroom at the art exhibition and how their collaboration started. She didnât leave out any detail.
Natalieâs brow knitted as she took in Mandyâs story.
